‘Entrepreneur-led Development: A New Model For Africa’

Thank you all for being here today; the second of my two days in Washington DC, highlighting the importance of global entrepreneurship as a development model. Just yesterday I was honoured to participate as the only non-American speaker at a White House event on global entrepreneurship hosted by President Obama, who is also speaking on your campus after this session this morning. I want to thank President DeGoia and the Schools of Foreign Service and Business for this invitation to speak with you about “Entrepreneur-led Development, as a new model for Africa.”
